For compatibility with OpenVPN older than 2.4.0, the

The --cipher option has been there since a while, but it became more and
more confusing since the introduction of NCP (data cipher negotiation).
The fallback cipher can now be specified via --data-cipher-fallback,
while the list of accepted ciphers is specified via --data-ciphers.
--cipher can still be used for compatibility reasons, but won't affect
the cipher negotiation.
Adjust manpage to make clear that using --cipher in today's config really
is a thing from the past, and --data-ciphers should be used instead.

OpenVPN shipped a small packet filtering tool called PF. It has never
been straightforward as it required a plugin to work. On top of that,
keeping PF support, makes the code more complicated and increases the
maintenance cost of OpenVPN.
PF itself is not actually maintained at all and there is little
motivation in keeping it alive.
Some years ago an IPv6 extension for PF was proposed, but it was never
picked up for the reasons above.
External (and more appropriate) tools can still be used to implement
packet filtering on the OpenVPN interface.
Drop PF support for good.
Note that IDs used for external communication (i.e. to the plugin
or management interface) have been commented out, but not removed, as
they should not be used in the future.

With this change the value of '--allow-compression' is set to 'no'.
Therefore compression is not enabled by default and cannot be enabled
by the server either.
This change is in line with the current trend of not recommending
compression over VPN tunnels for security reasons (check Voracle).
Of top of that compression is mostly useless nowadays, therefore
there is not real reason to enable it.

Most TLS 1.3 libraries inlcude the Chacha20-Poly1305 based cipher suite
beside the AES-GCM based ones int he list of default ciphers suites.
Chacha20-Poly1305 is accepted as good alternative AEAD algorithm to the
AES-GCM algorithm by crypto community.
Follow this and include Chacha20-Poly1305 by default in data-ciphers
when available. This makes picking Chacha20-Poly1305 easier as it only

This changes that auth_token_initial is set when the token is
initially generated instead when pushing the token. Even I do not
know anymore why I did it in this way in the first place. Also use
multi->auth_token_initial as source for the sesssion ID since it should
now always be available. Also set auth_token_initial directly to
up->password once we verified that we have gotten a valid token from
a client. This cleans ups the logic in generating the environment and
makes the code flow clearer.
Since the change makes auth_token_initial always available we need to add
a check to only send a PUSH reply to update the token on renegotiations.
The old code relied on multi->auth_token not being set in this case.
This commit also removes the workaround for old OpenVPN clients. These
were only available as commercial OpenVPN Connect client and not in use
anymore.
Furthermore, introduce a check if the session ID has changed during a
session. Even though this is still a valid authentication changing to
a different auth token mid session is highly irregular and should never
occur naturally.
Patch V2: rebase.

token workaround for old v3.

The IV_HWADDR description was only partially correct, as there are more
implementations using other values than the MAC address of the default
gateway.
The intention of this value is to provide a unique identifier of the
client and on some platforms this is not possible to retrieve other than
to generate this information.
The 64 bytes limitation is an arbitrary value, it is not enforced by
OpenVPN 2.x. But it was considered a good idea to at least have some
reasonable upper limit of how long this string can be, at least for
those implementing support for this information.

When not using username and password (i.e. auth-user-pass) it can still
be desirable to provide the client with an auth-token, e.g. for allowing
a session to continue after a reconnect without requiring 2FA again.
However, without --auth-user-pass openvpn does not have a username and will
ignore any pushed auth-token command.
This patch adds support for auth-token-user to set the username that should
be used for auth-token
The spec of using auth-token-user base64-encoded-user are the ones that
OpenVPN3 already implements.

The non-TLS mode is a relict from OpenVPN 1.x or 2.0. When TLS mode was
introduced the advantages of TLS over non-TLS were small but TLS mode
evolved to include a lot more features (NCP, multipeer, AEAD ciphers to
name a few).
Today VPN setups that use --secret are mainly used because this mode is
easier to setup and does not require setting up a PKI. This shortcoming
of TLS mode should be addressed now with the peer-fingerprint option.
The primary reason to deprecate --secret is that it is not secure enough
anymore for modern environments. This mode uses a fixed pre-shared key and
no session keys. Thus, no forward secrecy is possible, which means that
any captured VPN traffic can be decrypted later should the --secret key
get into the wrong hands. The cryptography overall used here was okay
when --secret was introduced but is not acceptable by today's standard
anymore.
Finally, modern hardware-accelerated crypto modes like AES-GCM can only
be used in TLS mode (due to IV requirements).

This option allow migration to a non compression server config while
still retraining compatibility with client that have a compression
setting in their config.
For existing setups that used to have comp-lzo no or another
compression setting in their configs it is a difficult to migrate to
a setup without compression without replacing all client configs at
once especially if OpenVPN 2.3 or earlier clients are in the mix that
do not support pushing stub-v2. Even with OpenVPN 2.4 and later clients
that support pushing this is not a satisfying solution as the clients
log occ mismatches and the "push stub-v2" needs to be in the server
config "forever".
If the new migrate option to compress is set and a client is detected
that indicates that compression is used (via OCC), the server will
automatically add ``--push compress stub-v2`` to the client specific
configuration if stub-v2 is supported by the client and otherwise
switch to ``comp-lzo no`` and add ``--push comp-lzo`` to the client
specific configuration.

If --mlock is used, the amount of memory OpenVPN can use is guarded
by the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK value (see mlockall(2)). The OS default for this
is usually 64 Kbyte, which is enough for OpenVPN to initialize, but
as soon as the first TLS handshake comes it, OpenVPN will crash due
to "ouf of memory", and might even end up in a crash loop.
Steady-state OpenVPN requires between 8 MB and 30-50 MB (servers with
many concurrent clients) of memory. TLS renegotiation with EC keys
requires up to 90 MB of transient memory.
So: with this patch, we check if getrlimit() is available, and if yes,
log the amount of mlock'able memory. If the amount is below 100 MB,
which is an arbitrary value "large enough for most smaller deployments",
we try to increase the limits to 100 MB, and abort if this fails.
v2:
change arbitrary number to 100 MB, introduce #define for it
not only check but also increase with setrlimit()

v3:

This allows a client to extend the timeout of pull-request response
while waiting for the user to complete a pending authentication. A
timeout of 60s for a normal authentication might still works for a
simple 2FA (but still challenging). With a sophisticated (or overly
complicated) web based authentication 60s are quite short.
To avoid not detecting network problem in this phase, we use the
constant sending of PUSH_REQUEST/AUTH_PENDING as keepalive signal
and still timeout the session after the handshake window time.

OpenVPN has the ability to choose different X509 field in case "CN" can
not be use used to be unique connected username since commit
935c62be9c "Choose a different field in
X509 to be username".
Unfortunately it's not enough in case when client has multiple and
valid certificates from PKI for different devices (ex. laptop,
mobile, etc) with the same CN/UID.
Having --duplicate-cn as a workaround helps only partially: clients can
be connected, but it breaks coexistance with --ifconfig-pool-persist,
--client-config-dir and opens doors to DoS possibility since same client
device (with the same cert) being reconnected no more replaces previously
connected session, so it can exhaust server resources (ex. address pool)
and can prevent other clients to be connected.
With this patch, multiple X509 fields incl. "serialNumber" can be chosen
to be username with --x509-username-field parameters, they will be
concatened into the one username using '_' separator. As long as the
resulting username is unique, --duplicate-cn will not be required.
Default field is preserved as "CN".
Openssl backend is the only supported, since so far MbedTLS has no
--x509-username-field support at all.

NOTE: this is a bit simplistic. A pool that is larger than /96 and
has non-0 bits in the "uppermost bits" will still get the increment
as we only look at the lowermost 32 bits.
NOTE2: if the pool is specified with "--server-ipv6 $base/$bits", this
is a non-issue, as the address for the pool start will be incremented
anyway.
v2: make comment more explicit about "we're only talking about the
host part here" and "base sees only only 32 bit of the host part"

The --remote entry had a syntax mistake in the argument examples, which
was introduced during the .rst conversion.
In addition this section did not have a good flow. So the text was
regrouped and re-organized a bit so related text pieces are now gathered
in the same context instead of being more spread out.

Netlink route request with NLM_F_DUMP flag set means to return
all entries matching criteria passed in message content -
matching supplied family & dst address in our case.
So, gateway from the first ipv4 route was always used.
On kernels earlier than 2.6.38 default routes are the last ones,
so arbitrary host/net route w/o gateway is likely be returned as
first, causing gateway to be invalid or empty.
After refactoring in 2.6.38 kernel default routes are on top, so
the problem with older kernels was hidden.
Fix this behavior by selecting first 0.0.0.0/0 if dst was not set
or empty. For IPv6, no behavior is changed - request ::/128 route,
so just clarify the sizes via netlink route api.
Tested on 5.4.0, 4.1.51, 2.6.36 and 2.6.22 kernels.

It's a long-standing and well-known problem that --push-reset removes
"critical" options from the push list (like "topology subnet") which
will then lead to non-working client configs. This can not be
reasonably fixed, because the list of "critical" options depends on
overall server config.
So just document the fact, and point people towards --push-remove as
a more selective tool.

Most of the new compress but not v2 version do use swap operation. For
'compress lzo' the swap option is not used for backwards compatibility.
For lz4 the swap option is also not a problem since there is no version
without swap. Unfortunately, compress introduced a second stub format
with swap, contrary to the one in 'comp-lzo no' that does not use swap.
Document this weirdness to let not others fall into this trap.

This reworks the NCP logic to be more strict about what is
considered an acceptable result of an NCP negotiation. It also
allows us to finally drop support for BF-CBC as default cipher.
All new behaviour is currently limited to server/client
mode with pull enabled. P2p mode without pull does not change.
New Server behaviour:
- when a client announces its supported ciphers through either
OCC or IV_CIPHER/IV_NCP we reject the client with a
AUTH_FAILED message if we have no common cipher.
- When a client does not announce any cipher in either
OCC or NCP we reject it unless data-ciphers-fallback is
specified in either ccd/ or config.
New client behaviour:
- When no cipher is pushed (or a cipher we refused to support)
and we also cannot support the server's cipher announced in
OCC we fail the connection and log why
- If there is no cipher in OCC but data-ciphers-fallback is
specified we will use the fallback cipher instead of failing the
connection
Both client and server behaviour:
- We only announce --cipher xyz in occ if we are willing
to support that cipher (always announce the cipher if
NCP is disabled or not in --client mode)
It means that we only announce the fallback-cipher if
it is also contained in --data-ciphers
Compatibility behaviour:
In 2.5 both client and server will use a --cipher xyz present
in the config to automatically set --data-ciphers-fallback xyz
and also append this cipher to the end of data-ciphers.
We log a warning about this and point to --data-ciphers and
--data-ciphers-fallback This also happens if the configuration
contains an explicit --cipher BF-CBC.
If --cipher is not set, we only warn that previous versions
allowed BF-CBC and point out how to re-enable BF-CBC. This will
break configs where someone connects a 2.3 client (or older)
to a 2.5 server AND has no explicit --cipher setting in the
server config. We still do it, because at some point we need
to drop the BF-CBC default - and affected users already had the
scary SWEET32 warning in their logs for a long time.
In short: If --cipher is explicitly set then 2.5 will work the
same as 2.4 did. When --cipher is not set, BF-CBC support is
dropped and we warn about it.
Examples how breaking the default BF-CBC will be logged:
Client side:
- Client connecting to server that does not push cipher but
has --cipher in OCC
OPTIONS ERROR: failed to negotiate cipher with server. Add the
server's cipher ('BF-CBC') to --data-ciphers (currently
'AES-256-GCM:AES-128-CBC') if you want to connect to this server.
- Client connecting to a server that does not support OCC:
OPTIONS ERROR: failed to negotiate cipher with server. Configure
--data-ciphers-fallback if you want connect to this server.
Server Side:
- Server has a client only supporting BF-CBC connecting:
styx/IP PUSH: No common cipher between server and client. Server
data-ciphers: 'CHACHA20-POLY1305:AES-128-GCM:AES-256-GCM:AES-256-CBC:AES-128-CBC', client supports cipher 'BF-CBC'.
- Client without OCC:
styx/IP PUSH:No NCP or OCC cipher data received from peer.
styx/IP Use --data-ciphers-fallback with the cipher the client is using
if you want to allow the client to connect
In all cases the client is rejected with this message:
AUTH: Received control message: AUTH_FAILED,Data channel cipher
negotiation failed (no shared cipher)

This allows us to skip waiting for the first PUSH_REQUEST message from
the client to send the response.
This changes the interpretation of IV_PROTO from a scalar to a bitfield
Since we only have IV_PROTO=2 defined so far and will support DATA_V2
this should not make any problem. This avoid adding another IV_xxx variable
that takes valuable space in the protocol frame.
